Social dilemma On Facebook, Dominic writes:
My wife and I work completely different schedules, and it’s starting to cause a conflict in the time we share meals together. She leaves for work at two in the morning, and I get up to start my day around six. She gets home from work around noon, and that’s when I’m about ready to take a lunch break. It gets complicated, though, because she tends to not want to eat until she’s ready. So, I put out a rule that says if she’s not “ready” by 2:00, then…screw it…I’m eating anyway. Now, she says I’m not being a good and respectful partner, but I see it as going both ways. Plus, we’re both freaking adults and we should eat whenever we damn well feel like it. I want us to have those necessary “together” moments. I just don’t want to neglect hunger pangs to make them happen. Am I totally out of line here?

Signs you are truly happy: you stay in the moment, you get fresh air, exercise...

Toxic boss traits you shouldn't be putting up with. For ex: criticism with no direction, working overtime for no pay.

Second Date Update: Dan and Andrea went to a nice sushi joint. He said they hit it off so well the date went super long. Now, she has ghosted.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Or variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today
Star one on one three. It's Marcus and Corey. Six am.
What's happening?

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Good morning?

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Are you? Corey?

Speaker 3 (00:08):
H should probably apologize to the person I honked out
on the way in this morning.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
But you can turn right on red if there's not
a sign.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Where was this?

Speaker 3 (00:16):
This was getting onto two eighty and they're just sitting
there blinkers on, not going, waiting for the light in
there and I know where the signs are that say
don't turn right on red.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
You're sure there isn't one there? Oh yeah, no, I
find them in the challenger.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
Yeah, I'm I will apologize because I do get a
little bit of road rage. And this morning it was
just like I felt like I was playing some sort
of weird video game where they just drop like stupid
characters right in front of me and I have to
avoid them.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Why did you feel they need to apologize to this particular.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Person because I honked in? It's early.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
Did a freak them out that they move? No?

Speaker 2 (00:55):
No, no, they doubled down.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
But uh, you know, when I see somebody coming up
behind me going faster than I am, I get it
out of the way.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yo, if you're going faster than Corey, you might be
hitting hyperspeed.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Let's be real, I'm not crazy. I just when there's
just turn, there's no cars coming, just go.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
I had a funny moment at dinner last night. We
were watching one of the neighbor kids hanging out. He
was hanging out with my daughter and I was making lasagna.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Ooh, did you bring me in here?

Speaker 1 (01:29):
I did not. I'll explain off the we didn't have extra.
We fed the neighborhood yesterday. But anyways, he comes into
the kitchen and nobody had told me this, and I
should have asked it's my fault. But he goes, I
just want to let you know I don't eat that
much cow. He goes, I don't really eat cow. And

(01:49):
I got a whole pan of sausage and ground beef
cooking for the lasagna. And I said, okay, buddy.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
I kind of feel like that's his parents' responsibility.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
There was a lot going on, and I go, okay, buddy,
I go at all and he goes, I mean, I
just don't eat that much. If you could keep it
under three pounds, that'd be great. And I said.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Okay, three pounds.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Oh he's nine. I don't know whether or not he can,
you know, for sure, conceptualize what three pounds actually? Okay?
And then he looks at me and goes, what smell
so good? And I go, it's all the cow. The cow.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
Well, it ain't the vegetables.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
I said, I got you, buddy, don't worry about it.
So I gave him a little his was a little
cow light his piece.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
That's interesting.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Yeah, anyway, I.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Didn't eat a lot of red meat when I was
a kid. My parents, you know, we talk about this
all the time. How healthy are parents were sure?

Speaker 1 (02:51):
It was just the way he phrased it. I don't
really dig on cow.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
What smells looksmell so good?

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Anyway? All right, more variety for the two thousands, the nineties,
and today it's Star one O one three. It's Marcus
and Corey. Good morning.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
Hi.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
There's a little dilemma we saw on social media. This
is on Reddit. Skuy dominic, right, this is about differing
eating schedules and how to have those moments with your
spouse when you're on completely different schedules. He says, my
wife and I work different schedules, starting to cause a
conflict in the time we share meals. She leaves for

(03:27):
work at two in the morning. I get up to
start my day around six.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
That's way different.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
She gets home from work around noon, and that's when
I'm ready to take my lunch. Break gets complicated. She
tends not to want to eat until she's ready, so
I put out a rule says she's not ready by
two o'clock. I'm eating anyway now, she says, I'm not
being good and respectful. I see it both ways. Plus,
we're both adults. We should be able to eat whenever

(03:53):
we feel like it. I do want us to have
these necessary together moments. I just don't can happen. Am
I totally out of line here? You and Jeff are
kind of this right, But you guys eat dinner at
the same time.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
We do eat dinner at the same time. He goes
to bed when I go to bed.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Okay, So that kind of helps keep us on track
because I get up at four in the morning. But
there have been times when I'm not hungry and he
wants to eat lunch, and I'm like, okay, I mean
dinner is more important to me than lunch, is.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
Right, But I mean I feel like there's a simple
solution here. Find your together moments elsewhere that aren't evolving
around food. Because if one person's hungry, bad things are
gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Go take a.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Walk together, get your quality time in like that, watch
a show together.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
I mean the eating thing. It's like, if he's hungry.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Eat, I mean yeah, I also like we do you know?
Dinner time is family time at our house typically no screens,
no TV less, it's Friday. But there are a lot
of times I'm not hungry. Yeah, the girls me and
like hang out. But I won't eat a.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Good time to connect though, because even if Jeff's working
from home, my husband, he's still downstairs in his office.
And then when he comes up and we have that
dinner time together, I'll usually pause to the TV and
be like, do you want to talk about your day?

Speaker 2 (05:13):
That's where those connections are.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
But it's like you said, you just need to find
another time to have those moments doesn't necessarily have to
be over eating.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
What's funny to me is reading this reddit and I'm
feeling his frustration, and I really I want to reach
out to and be like, dude, just talk to your wife.
Tell her that she won't like you when you're hungry. No, no, no,
I'm not even kidding.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
You have to go on social media if you really
want to solve all.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
Your problems, don't do it around food, bro, That is
that's a loss. Yeah, like find your together times elsewhere. Yeah,
let her eat when she wants to eat, You eat
when you want to eat, and then get together and
watch this next season of Yellowstone or something. I don't know.
Or did we fix it?

Speaker 3 (05:54):
No?

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Probably no, No, we got it all right, I think.
So you got any thoughts on this? Hit us with
a talkback that little red microphone on iHeartRadio. Maybe you're
going through it. Maybe you and your spouse have completely
different schedules. How do you manage? Let us know, Star
one O one three, well variety the two thousands, the nineties,
and today it's Star one on one three Marcus and Corey.
Here's a gut check.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
And at first glance, this seemed very zen, and then
I kept reading it. I was like, doesn't feel very inclusive.
Signs that you're genuinely happy, Okay, I'm going to read
them and you tell me how you're doing. Okay. Number
one sign that you're genuinely happy, Corey, you live in
the present.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
I'd like to think I live in the present. I bet,
I'm not really sure if I'm doing it right.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Okay, So from what I understand, being in the moment
means you're talking about and thinking about the same thing
at the same time. So if you and I are
having a conversation about signs, you're genuinely happy, but you're
thinking about what are we having for dinner tonight? Do
you know I was thinking about food, not a hard one. Yeah,

(06:53):
then you're not living in the moment.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
I think it's very important for this job to live
in the moment, because if you and I are having
a conversation and I'm not paying attention.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Well, we get caught a lot. I get caught not
listening to you. I think you get caught not listening
to me.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
No, and there have been a few times I just
don't acknowledge it.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
It's different, all right, let's move on. You let go
of negative thought patterns.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
I mean that's huge, because I mean that negativity can
just grow and fester and it just you know, acid
reflux and all kinds of stuff.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
I was gonna say, when it manifests itself into like
physical issues. That's a thing.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Yeah, and it can I always know. And I've got
to take a minute and slow down because I'm like, you.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Give without expecting anything in return.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
I'm very much like that one.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
I love to give a gift when I see something
and I'm like, oh, they love that, sure, I mean, I.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Really like to put thought into it. I sound like
a cheeseball right now.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
I'm at the point where my neighbors think I'm a
weirdo because I'm that neighbor that will have a couple
extra crabs that I cooked up, you know, because we
live in half More and I'll just show up at
your front door. Hey man, you want some crab. They're like, wait, what,
don't don't just pop in. I'm a popper inner.

Speaker 3 (08:07):
I think you should give a nice text message first,
because we might be doing something like true you know,
we could be in the middle of an argument.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Other ways to know that you're genuinely happy, you eat
healthy foods, and you exercise. I'm not going to blame
you on this. For some reason, Corey's husband is on
a TikTok recipe tear can we talk about what you've
had to eat?

Speaker 3 (08:28):
In the last week. Could it's called tremendous, calling it
Jeff's fault. There was a short rib evening and polenta.
There was no butter in there.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Oh cheese, there's cheese in the polenta.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
Sticky ribs.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Sticky ribs.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
I mean, I love it because it's delightful and delicious,
but at the same time, I'm trying to fix my
liver and it's it's my liver's like stop.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
You live minimally. We do that at my house. My
wife is very very hype on. What don't we need.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
Okay, toss it? Yeah, yeah, No, I like that. I
liked to purr.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
You remind yourself to smile. I'm a whistler.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
You are a whistler. I always know when you're coming
because I can hear you down the hallway.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Why I do that because somebody told me one time
that Don Blue used to whistle all the time, my predecessor.
You're not doing it genuinely just for you, no, check
it out. So I tried it one day and it
really puts you in the right mindset. It really does,
and noise the heck out of the coworkers. I'm sure.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
No, it's more you're singing. I can't get you stop singing.
We get in there one we'll ever get me to
stop singing. We get in the elevator yesterday and you
were like at A twenty and I'm like.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
This is a small, tiny room. Please stop singing.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Other ways, you know you're genuinely happy, you form deeper relationships.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
Yeah, because you're comfortable.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
You know you deserve happiness, and you allow spirituality into
your life. All right, we'll get there.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
I've got I got a few I gotta work on.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
Couple, couple check marks, a couple highlighter pens. We'll get there.
This is what I.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
It's what's trending on start, what's happening in entertainment news,
the biggest stories of the day, and everything people are
talking about today in the babe.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
If you are worried about robots taking your job, well
I've got more information for you. Wendy's is preparing for
a change. They're going to use fresh AI's voice enabled ordering.
They were testing it in their restaurants last year. Now
they're expanding to about six hundred locations. There's no word
if all their stores will use the tech. Not a

(10:30):
lot of people are happy about it. But it looks
like it's the wave of the future because McDonald's is
now testing it as well.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
Here's what I think all jokes aside about AI. I
don't know if it's AI going to take our jobs.
It's the people that know how to harness AI that
are going to get the jobs.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
But eventually the AI will become smarter than the people
who created it, and then they will deem us not
competent and we will be enslaved.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
I think we've already deemed ourselves incompetent, haven't we.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Well, common sense is not very common.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
So seven planets are aligned in the night sky through
the end of the week. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune,
and Uranus.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
That's not how you pronounce that.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
That's how I pronounce it because I work with a
ten year old. I work with a ten year old
boy who's over there giggling. You can't see it with
the naked eye, so you'll need a telescope. But the
best time to view the alignment of all these planets
is as soon as the sun sets, and it's only
visible for a few minutes.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
The best time is going to be Friday, so I
just need to be clear.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
You can't see Urin is naked.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
I'm disappointed in you. I'm not sure.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
That's not a joke. That's something fourth grader would ask. Actually,
that's disrespectful to fourth graders. I apologize for one night only.
Next week, Purple Rain will be in theaters. Warner Brothers,
Discovery and Dolby are releasing a restored version of the
nineteen eighty four movie with Prince. It's gonna be really
cool because they're gonna be like doing Dolby's immersive audio

(12:05):
and all that stuff to make it as cool as possible.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
You can get advanced tickets through the AMC Theaters website.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Got he's so talented. You don't realize how talented Prince was.
And Telly's gone.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
We played like forty instruments.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, so talented.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeah, really incredible.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
Let's see where to begin. Levi Strauss day today we
bring it up because Chroy's husband and Jeff works over there.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Thank you for not saying what you said before.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Basically runs the place, just not I mean, basically thinks
he's been promoted like eighteen times in a year. You know,
I don't like to share bad news, but I feel
like we all need to be mindful of our school
systems right now. Lots of school districts struggling with huge
budget deficits, and again both my parents' public school teachers,

(12:52):
a lot of teachers getting laid off, a lot of administrators,
a lot of support staff. Schools are getting closed. East
San Jose, Oakland and San Francisco Unified are three of
the big ones that come to mind. But I just
want you as a parent to be mindful. Yeah, hold
back on that snappy email maybe, And as someone who's
been on a couple of school boards, these decisions are

(13:14):
not typically come to lightly, So just know that they're
going through it right now, and let's let's just be empathetic.
Let's see Amazon's tech event is today. This is their
first ever. They're going to be showcasing advances, AI advances

Well variety from the two thousands, the nineties and today
it's Star one on one three, It's Marcus and Corey
and it's back. Second date update.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
We want to figure out why you're not getting that
second dates the name second date update. You got the
first one, why are you not getting the second one?

Speaker 1 (15:01):
We go to Dan, who met Andrea on Hinge, So
I understand is it? Am I right so far?

Speaker 6 (15:05):
Dan?

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Yes, Okay, welcome. Let's talk about what you guys did
for your first day because it's my understanding that she
has ghosted, so tell us about it.

Speaker 4 (15:14):
Yeah. I mean we went out to a sushi place,
pretty nice one, and I thought the night was awesome,
you know, it seemed like everything went really great, and
we had some great laughs, food was good. Nothing out
of the ordinary, you know, as far as like nothing
that I could pinpoint, you know, and so we were
just having like a ton of fun, you know, and

(15:35):
then it like went way longer because like when you're
having a good time, you don't realize how fast it goes,
you know. So that was a good sign to me.
So and then I said I would hit her up,
and she was like yeah, like she was like totally
into it. And then nothing, like I've just been completely ghosted,
And I mean I would get it if there was
some weird things I could pinpoint, you know, it was

(15:55):
nothing it was like an A plus date.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
So I'll bet you Corey could pinpoint some weird things.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
Well, I'm thinking maybe she had a trip planned to
like Paris. She goes to Paris with a friend and
they meet a stranger at the airport and they split
a taxi and then the guy's like, hey, I want to.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
Invite you guys to a party, and they're like.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
Okay, And what he's doing is he's getting their address
and cut to you.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
They're both taken.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
What do you mean by taking? Taken?

Speaker 2 (16:18):
Liam Neeson? Taken?

Speaker 1 (16:20):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (16:21):
Oh, you're so pitiful?

Speaker 1 (16:22):
Is that a movie?

Speaker 6 (16:22):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Why is it always a movie?

Speaker 2 (16:25):
Sometimes I can't come up with the plot myself.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
This seems a little far fetched. Dan, I don't know. Yeah,
probably we shall see. I'll tell you what, Dan, Let's
call her and try to figure it out. Do you
have a couple of minutes? Yeah, all right, good. We're
gonna play a song and then we'll call Andrea. It's
Second Date Update Star one on one three variety from
the two thousands, the nineties and today it's Star one

(16:49):
on one three. It's Marcus and Corey. We're doing Second
Date Update. We've been chatting with Dan, who met Andre
on hinge and they met up for sushi. And here's
what I love the most, Dan, you said it, you're elf.
The date went so well, you kind of lost track
of time. It didn't seem long, which is always good. Yes,
So trying to figure out why she's ghosted, Why don't

(17:09):
you mute your phone? We will call her and see
how the date went from her perspective, Crossing fingers for
a second date, but at least let's get some answers. Okay, cool,
here we go.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
Hello, I may speak with Andrea. Please, Hi Andrea. It's
Marcus and Corey from Star one on one three.

Speaker 6 (17:29):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
Hi, Hello, Hi, Hi?

Speaker 1 (17:33):
How can I help you?

Speaker 4 (17:34):
Guys?

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Do you do you listen to our radio show?

Speaker 2 (17:38):
No? No, I'm sorry, that's.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Okay, you're not. We're delightful, not a bad person, mostly
just kidding.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
So would you mind being on the air with us.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
We do a morning show here in the Bay, and
we do a dating segment called second Date up Date,
and we wanted to talk to you.

Speaker 7 (17:56):
Went on sure what I don't know what that is?

Speaker 6 (17:59):
Right?

Speaker 1 (18:00):
So there's a guy that floated us your phone number.
His name is Dan, he said, you guys went on
a first date some good sushi, and he would love
to take you out again. He found you fascinating, but
he's feeling ghosted soon, wondering how the date went for
you and if we could maybe score our guy a
second date.

Speaker 7 (18:18):
Your thoughts, Okay, well, this is awkward to be I ken,
I know. Yeah, I mean I'll share a little bit.
Dan and I went out and we had a pretty
good time, Like he was pretty funny and for the
most part we had we had a really good time.
And so I just I really didn't like how the
date ended. And like, the more that I've thought about it,

(18:40):
the more it's like, really rubbed me the wrong way.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
What happened.

Speaker 7 (18:44):
I don't eat a lot of like I love sushi.
I love sushi, and Dan was the one who suggested
that we go to this place, and I was like,
you know what, Yeah, that sounds nice. I love sushi,
but I don't eat a lot. And so I had
like maybe like a roll and a half liked I
didn't eat that much in Dan on the other hand, like,
which I'm totally cool with, Like if you want to
go hogwild and eat all the sushi like game on

(19:05):
but he kept ordering. He I mean he, I don't
even know how many roles he had at that point.
So by the end of the night, like he just
kept ordering and the date kept going on, and like
it was fine because we were having a good conversation,
but he just kept ordering. So we were there for
like I don't even know, like three hours, and so
at the end, like I got out my card, like

(19:26):
I'm cool paying my part, but he got out his card,
handed it to the waiter and said, okay, we're gonna
go half, and so they took the bill before I
even had a chance to like argue or say no,
I had to pay more than almost like double for
sushi that I didn't even eat, and so sure it
really really rubbed me the wrong way. And by the

(19:47):
time that our date was over, and like I had
time to think about it, I was like, wait, that sucks,
Like I don't want to do that in the future.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
Okay, okay, definitely uh not very mindful making that decision.
I get for date going dudge, but if you ate
like three times you did, I could see.

Speaker 7 (20:05):
Yeah, and it was a lot like I get it.
I love to too, but like, bro, come on, why
do I have to pay that much money for all
the food that you ate that I didn't eat.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
So Andrea, Dan's on the phone, he's listening right now,
And Okay, Dan, Yeah, I feel like this is pretty
cut and dry. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie here.

Speaker 4 (20:23):
Yeah, well, okay, can I explain my side?

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Sure?

Speaker 6 (20:28):
Sure, Hell.

Speaker 4 (20:29):
I'm a little embarrassed that I didn't think about it
that way, but like this is pretty standard. Like whenever
I go both my buddies we all eat. This is
just standard procedure. You know, you split the bill. You
all order a bunch of stuff at the same time,
and then you split it. So I just figured that
was pretty standard for a date, so you know, I
would get it.

Speaker 7 (20:49):
It's like I'm a date dude, Like I'm not, Well,
you're like bros that you hang out with, Like it's
just a total lack of consideration to expect it.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
I mean in the beginning, you kind of you kind
of are in the begin you know, I mean like
first date, you're just getting to know each other, and
then next date. I treat that was what I had planned,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 7 (21:06):
I No, I don't. I don't because I think that, like,
it's cool to go and get to know each other.
But again, like you said, you don't know me, I
don't know you. Like we're trying to get to know
each other, So why expect me, like one of your friends,
to pay?

Speaker 4 (21:19):
I think honestly, First off, you you ate just as
much as I ate.

Speaker 7 (21:23):
No, no, I did not, No, I did not my friend, like,
I barely ate that much.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
Okay, is it even appropriate to ask for a do over?

Speaker 6 (21:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (21:37):
All right, I'm good, thank you? All right, hang on?

Speaker 2 (21:41):
Uh so, sure, thank you?

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Peace out anyway. Second Date Update seven oh five weekday mornings,
you replace it nine oh five. Make sure you get
caught up on the podcast on the iHeartRadio Appicing now
pre set, so preset Marcus and Corey Second Date Update.
Preset the trivia game, Preset the show on demand so
you don't miss anything. It's a very cool new feature
because the app is redesigned. It's Star one on one three,

(22:06):
it's Marcus and Corey seven to twenty. Maybe you're starting
your work day to day. I don't know that this
article is written by a gen zer, but it says
these are some old school toxic work traits of bosses.
That we should stop putting up with.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
Okay, so you're saying that this is how we're getting treated.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Correct, then we need to do away with it. Some
of them I agree with, and then other ones I'm like, well,
if you want to really truly be successful, but then
I need to open up a dialogue and you let
me know what you think. I would welcome an argument,
constructive argument, because I am old school. So let's see
Number one toxic behavior of old school bosses that need

(22:48):
to go away. They expect you to work over time
without extra pay. That's frustrating, first of all illegal, but
second of all, it's hard for like what we do
for work. You know, when I was first coming up,
when I was a teenager just getting into radio, I
literally had this conversation with my boss. Listen, Marcus, we're

(23:08):
gonna put you on the morning show to do stunts
for the morning guy and be the producer. You're gonna
work probably fifty hours a week. I can only pay
you for thirty, but you'll get unlimited concert tickets.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
He'll do that when you're younger because you're hungry.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Right and you want it. I did it.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
Yeah, well, oh yeah, I think my foot is it, Okay,
I don't know. I honestly, I don't know the answer
to that, because it's like if you say to me, hey,
I can't get you any more money, but I'll give
you an extra week vacation.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
I mean, is that I guess that's compensation, right?

Speaker 2 (23:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (23:44):
But how much? Think about it again? I think it's
industry specific. Think about the industry that you work in.
For us, it's radio. How much did you learn just
by hanging out?

Speaker 6 (23:53):
Well?

Speaker 2 (23:54):
And also you could turn around and sell those concert tickets.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Well, there's that too. Now we're getting into the mid Yeah,
here's another one again. Toxic behaviors, old school bosses. We
need to stop putting up with agreed, disagree bosses that
expect employees to always be on call.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
I'm not a fan of that, only for mental health. Now,
if I agreed to be on call, that's one thing.
If I'm the backup, I get it. But if all
of a sudden, out of nowhere, I'm in my fat
pants on the couch enjoying a dateline marathon, and You're like,
didn't mind popping in to.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
Dude, But I know that if I'm bugging Corey about something,
it better be good better be important.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
I just your mental health is so important. And you know,
because you and I are very different. You check your
emails all time of the day.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
I have work, fomo. It's I haven't had an email
that's triggered me in probably a decade, so I don't
worry about it. Usually I just go, Okay, that's not important,
not important, not important.

Speaker 3 (24:50):
You know you do You wait for me to come
in and check my emails, and then you like sit
in the corner and giggle at my reactions.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
Well, because I have wait till I open up.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
I have the same reactions eighteen hours ago when the
person sent the email. It's like watching a friend get
caught up. I just gotta I gotta turn off.

Speaker 3 (25:07):
Like you and are very different because it's like you'll
be on the microphone every day, and then you'll be
on the microphone at a fundraiser and then you go
do karaoke by yourself, and I'm like closing the curtains,
don't want to talk to anybody.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
If I'm out and about, I'm in it to win it, sure.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
Otherwise Corey's on the clock. If she's punched in, she's
in it to win it. Otherwise all right, ull right.
Toxic bosses stop doing this. They give zero feedback or input,
only criticism.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
H I had.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
A boss who trained me like Pavlov's dog, because he
would go, you know, I love you right.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
I was always followed by a criticism.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
That was the precursor to here's why you suck.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Here's why you suck. You've trained me now to anytime
you tell me you like me, that you're going to
say something awful after that.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
The worst boss I ever had was a radio station
that I was trying to run as the pro pro director.
We were just and ratings were terrible. Station wasn't doing well.
He just walked in from out of town and goes,
I don't know, make it pop? What what am I
supposed to do with that? I wanted like a detailed plan.
Can you help me out?

Speaker 3 (26:16):
I really do appreciate direction, and I don't mind constructive
criticism at all.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Help me. But you know, if I get it too.
If you get into work and you're my boss and
the first thing you say to me is why are
you so stupid? Which is what one boss said to me, Eh,
why is this stupid?

Speaker 1 (26:31):
My favorite story ever?

Speaker 2 (26:33):
And I'm like, I don't know. Can you narrow it down?

Speaker 1 (26:35):
They micromanage every detail. They think work life balance is indulgent.
They promote a culture of toxic positivity, which basically means
pretending everything's fine when it's not fine. Oh two that A.
Here are two that I don't agree with, and we'll
finish with these. They don't consider raising your salary. That's
not their job. If I'm your boss, and frankly, if

(26:59):
I can get away with never raising your salary, I'm
not gonna you have to be the one.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
Have you earned it?

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Have you earned It's to me? Why the best advice
I ever got. No one cares about you more than
you do. The squeaky wheel. If you think you're gonna
just put your head down and work and there's somebody's
gonna notice and just give me some extra money, that's
never going to happen now and it will never end.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
The other one that made me laugh. Toxic bosses expect
you to be in the office five days a week.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
What what you didn't tell me?

Speaker 2 (27:34):
This was Monday through Friday.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
Being in the office is important, camaraderie is important.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
Is you miss out on stuff when you're not having
conversations with people.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
This is my old school coming out. We're gonna end
with that because we're late. Now Star one on one three,
it's Marcus and Corey.

Speaker 2 (27:50):

Speaker 2 (28:18):
This is a teenager in Ohio. He's being recognized as
a hero.

Speaker 3 (28:22):
He saved both his grandfather and a neighbor in separate
emergencies just weeks apart. This is crazy and completely different injuries.
This is the eighteen year old Gavin Saltzman. He was
in the car with his mom taking his grandfather to
the hospital when his grandfather went into cardiac arrest YEP.
Gavin quickly performed CPR for about five minutes until Roger's

(28:42):
heart started beating again. He had suffered a heart attack
and a stroke, but because Gavin was there, Hm, He's okay.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Two weeks later, he had to put his cape back on.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Because he heard his neighbor calling for help after she'd
fallen and broken her leg outside on a freezing night,
and he rushed over there because he didn't wanted to
be left in the day dress cold. And he said
it felt good to help, knowing she might not have
survived if he hadn't come to a rescue. Yeah, the
mom is super proud. She calls him her miracle.
